Annapurna I (8091m / 26544ft) is located on the Annapurna massif, east of a great gorge cut through the Himalaya by the Kali Gandaki river is an enormous Himalayan massif is the tenth highest mountain in the world. An eight membered French expedition team led by Maurice Herzog climbed the peak first on the 3rd June 1950 via the North face. The successful climbers were Maurice Herzog himself and Louis Lachenal. The expedition team had arrived Base Camp on 18th May 1950 and took twenty-three days to succeed. It was also the first 8000m mountain ever to be climbed.

Annapurna I expedition is a challenging mountaineering expedition and we suggest climbers have at least some mountaineering training of 6000-7000m mountains to further enjoy the climbing.
